The cast includes Pete Best, The Quarrymen, Laurence Juber and Billy J. Kramer. Simon also talks about his other upcoming film projects with Mark Lewisohn, Beatles artist Shannon MacDonald and the Cavern Club/International Beatles Week celebration in Liverpool. Also, for those who didn't catch the video-only podcast of Ringo's September 9th press conference we posted on YouTube as show #100 we have portions of the audio here with Ringo, the All-Starrs and friends talking about the band and their tour and Ringo discussing his new book, art exhibit and next album. And we also have some late-breaking Beatles news. Thanks for listening. If you like the show, we'd encourage you to subscribe so you don't miss any of our future shows.
